51. THE TRUTH

WHITE MOON: The Luna Reborn 52. SNAP
~KAELI walked into the room that Arden had started frequenting.The room had automatically become the space where we could be real and true to ourselves without any fear of getting busted.I poured myself a drink from the mini bar in the room and went to join Arden on the sofa. He was resting against the chair with a small glass in his right hand. I did not have to ask him before knowing that he was taking something very strong."Bad day?" I asked as I could not really place mine. I was still trying to figure out what my relationship with Zira was. For this reason, it got me thinking a lot and reacting in strange ways.He sent me a glance before downing the content of his glass cup. Then he put his hand in his pants pocket and retrieved a dark handkerchief. He unwrapped it and I saw the little particle in it.He examined it for a while in silence and I saw his gaze darken. It was almost as if he was lost in a trance."Arden? Are you okay?" I asked as I felt my wolf stir with alarm.
WHITE MOON: The Luna Reborn 53. THERE IS A WAY
~ZIRAI stared back at the frozen Kael.The corridor I was standing in was quite dark as the sun had long set. The only light was coming from his room.I had thought things through. His room happened to be the only safe place where I could visit him and reveal the things I wanted him to know. I hoped that he would hear me out though."Kael. . ." I whispered. My wolf danced within me and I did not know what the outcome of this conversation would be but I needed to try.He blinked before regaining his composure. "Why are you here?" He asked and his eyes seemed to burn into my soul, leaving me unable to tell a lie.Honestly, I had asked myself the same question over and over again throughout the way here but I told myself that it had nothing to do with seeing his beautiful face, catching a glimpse of his sexy body, or the way that his voice made my wolf react.I let out a shaky breath as I felt my wolf stir with desire. "Won't you let me in?" I requested and gave him expectant eyes.He s
WHITE MOON: The Luna Reborn 54. THE DOCTOR
~ZIRAI sneaked out of bed once the first set of lights touched the sky.Thankfully, Arden was a heavy sleeper so he did not notice me moving around the room. I picked out a dark blue dress this time. It hugged my chest and flowed freely down my legs, stopping on my thighs. Then I put on the knee-high boots from yesterday and the leather jacket for protection from the cold. Next, I tied my hair up into a messy bun and threw one last glance at Arden before stepping out of the room.The house was still dark as I quietly made my way down the steps and into the grand hall. As I headed for the door, I prayed to the goddess that the outcome of today's event would work in my favor. I had already lost two days. I did not have much time. Only the goddess knew the next time another Death wraith was going to attack me.I pulled the door open quietly and successfully sneaked out of the house. There were two guards by the door and I straightened immediately so that I would not give away my intenti
WHITE MOON: The Luna Reborn 55. DERANGED WOMAN
~KAELFor some reason, I followed Zira.I told myself that it was because I wanted to show her face that her father was a killer. I knew that it was going to be hard for her to accept that he had committed a crime as grave as this. I wanted to make her understand that her proof would not be able to change the truth that I had been living with for my entire twenty-four years of life.Yet here we were at the supposed doctor's home and the woman was acting strange. My wolf stirred at the turn of events and I found myself questioning the entire situation."Tabitha!" Zira yelled and tried to unlock the door but it was tightly locked.I shook my head as I started developing a bad feeling about this entire meeting. "Zira, let's just go home. Forget her," I muttered.She stopped and stared at me with determined eyes. "I promised to give you proof and this woman is the only person that I know right now that can tell us the truth. Do you think I'm just going to back down after going through al
WHITE MOON: The Luna Reborn 56. DEFEAT
~ZIRAI thought I had seen it all until Tabitha took her own life.My wolf ached with every beat of my heart. My body shook as I cried angry tears. I had put all my hope in her. I had depended on her to be the one who would change everything. She had been the only card I had to play but she turned the tables around by killing herself."Why would she decide to take the truth to her grave?" I asked in a voice that was beyond broken and angry. I looked up and glared at her hanging body. We were too frozen to bring her down. It was pointless since she was long gone.There was no response from Kael who was still looking down at the note that Tabitha had left. There was a confused expression on his face."I don't understand," he blurted out loud.I spared him a glance and held my tears back. "What are you trying to understand?" I asked him in a pained voice.He looked away from the note for the first time and met his eyes with mine. "How big is this truth that she's willing to die for it?"
WHITE MOON: The Luna Reborn 57. WHAT IS THE TRUTH?
~KAEL"Where did the other half go?"Yet I found myself getting lost in the time of death which had been stated in the paper. It did not make sense to me. The story that my father had told us countless times of how she died had happened in the night.This was probably wrong. It could not be the right time. Documents like this were supposed to be accurate.How then was this one saying noon?"Kael?" Zira called and I stopped to look at her with raised brows. "Something has definitely gotten into you. It's Tabitha, isn't it? Maybe it would be best if we left the house of the dead woman. I think we need some air or something. Maybe we could come back later," she suggested.My wolf stirred as I glared at her. Her suggestion was not bad but I was not done snooping around. I needed to find the other half of this document. I needed to find assurance that the time written here was wrong.Father could not have made such a huge mistake in his telling of such a crucial story. If he had made a mis
WHITE MOON: The Luna Reborn 58. A PROFESSIONAL LIAR
~KAEL"Who are you running away from?"Tyler smiled. "Can I get something to drink first? I'm beyond thirsty," she requested instead.Zira sighed and went into the kitchen area to go fix up something for her drink. While Zira was gone, I examined Tyler and my wolf stirred with curiosity.I knew that Tyler was lying. She was not telling us the entire truth. Instead of getting pissed, I actually found myself marveling at her lying skills and I wanted to ask her a few questions that would help my own investigation— the investigation concerning my father."Tyler, how do you catch a professional liar?" I asked her.She corked her brows at me as she tried to understand where I was trying to get at. It got her a bit confused since it was not connected in any way to what was going on here. I knew that as she was staring at me, she was trying to deduce the connection and I also knew that she would not be able to find the link. So I waited for her to give up so that I would continue with my que
WHITE MOON: The Luna Reborn 59. WHY?
~ZIRA"Why is the White Cobra after you?"I felt Nala stir within me from the question that I had brought forward. My mind was deducing scenarios and I was seeing a connection but I wanted her to say it out loud.I remembered Arden had mentioned that the White Cobra was after someone. But this person was in hiding and we had planned to find this person first.What if Tyler had been the person all along? What if she knew where the Moon crest was this entire time?Tyler had still not said a word. She was only staring at us with guilt. I cleared my throat and Kael stepped forward."This is true, Tyler. Why are they after you? Is it because of information or do you have something that they want?" He demanded.Tyler swallowed hard. "I took something from them," she answered.Nala came to life as I felt as if we did not have to search further. That thing had to be the Moon crest. This woman knew where it was."You know where the Moon crest is, don't you?" I blurted out as I was unable to hi
